YIN + MEDITATION COURSE

WEDNESDAY NIGHTS 7:00 - 8:15 PM

MAY 17 - JUNE 21 2017

In a structured 6 week course we explore key yin postures to open and soothe the body to prepare it to come to stillness for meditation.

Yin yoga is an opportunity to balance the yang energy that we accumulate in our modern lifestyles. Yin postures are mostly floor-based passive and gentle (this is not a strong physical practice), and are held for longer periods of time (usually 3-5 minutes). The long holds enable us to enter an almost meditative state, making it a deeply relaxing experience. Yin postures are renowned for unlocking tension and increasing range of motion - hence assisting you to find a comfortable seat for meditation.

Once our bodies are ready, we will step into practicing different meditation techniques to help quiet the 'monkey' mind and unveil our deeper levels of consciousness. We will experiment with breathing techniques, guided meditation and yoga nidra. No experience in yin yoga or meditation is required.
